But we (The Factory) want to make sure that we communicate this clearly to our users in a way that makes sense and does not minimize the value of the request. Unfortunately, not all Ideas are capable of being implemented in Revit. They must then decide if they can in fact implement the Idea or decide if an Idea is even possible to do.

The Factory will then triage the most critical Ideas. The more Kudos an Idea gets, the more likely it is to get the attention of The Factory. Revit Ideas was created as a way for users to communicate some of those frustrations – what they wish the software could do, or how current features could be improved. Kudos give other users a way to vote on what they feel is an important Idea. While loving the possibilities, I also experienced the frustrations with some of the limitations of the software. My fascination with Revit started 14 years ago with Revit 2007 in architectural design. That fascination grew as I dove deeper into the power of the software. I have used the software practically for real-world projects (most of which are still standing!).

As the cold of January creeps in, I am settling into my role as Revit Community Manager. As a response to the “Open Letter”, my goal as Community Manager is to bridge the gap and continue to nurture discussions related to Revit that benefit both groups and continue to improve Revit. As a long-time Revit user, I am very excited and honored to be in a role where I can make an impact in the Revit community. I see this role as being a sort of liaison between our Revit users and our product teams (The Factory).
